Explanation:
According to Sohoni Dictionary Torso = the trunk (especially of a statue) without head and limbs or incomplete image.

"dhad" means whole body but it is inappropriate because the dictionary says that it is the part without head and limb.

Torso is applicable to broken statue also in colloquial.

  -> There can be different of opinion in the dictionaries but when it comes to translate the meaning of english words one must rely on oxford or that sort of dictionaries rather than Hindi translation dictionaries. Kindly refer the link I gave.
